Package : git-lfs
Version : 3.3.0-1+deb12u2
CVE ID : CVE-2025-26625
Debian Bug : 1118339
It was discovered that Git LFS, a Git extension for versioning large
files, incorrectly handled symbolic links. An attacker, through a
malicious Git repository, could write files outside of the victim's
working tree or bare repository, leading to remote command execution.
For Debian 12 bookworm, this problem has been fixed in version
3.3.0-1+deb12u2.
We recommend that you upgrade your git-lfs packages.
For the detailed security status of git-lfs please refer to
its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/git-lfs
Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply
these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
